About us

Explore Schools is a network of public charter schools providing nearly 2,000 students in Brooklyn with the outstanding education they deserve. We strive to provide students with the academic skills and critical-thinking abilities they need to succeed in a college-preparatory high school and beyond. As an organization, we acknowledge the detrimental impact of racism and systems of oppression. We envision a pathway to equity that features excellent curriculum and instruction in response to the opportunity gap—providing our scholars with access and opportunities to succeed. We commit to reflect individually on the roles we play within systems of oppression; and we channel our individual talents and cultural sensitivity to help our scholars and local community thrive. We believe that all children can learn when immersed in a rich environment full of high expectations, rigorous academics, and caring, committed adults. We believe equity and excellence are not mutually exclusive—we can meet the needs of all students in our schools, while actively engaging parents and driving toward excellent academic results. We believe it is both our privilege and responsibility to help close the opportunity gap in the Brooklyn community. For more information about Explore’s mission, model and our schools, please visit our website at www.explorenetwork.org.

  • At Explore Schools, we believe that learning starts with understanding — and that includes understanding the experiences our students carry with them into the classroom. That's why trauma-informed teaching isn't just a strategy for us — it's a core part of how we educate, support, and connect with our students every day. We know that when students feel safe — emotionally and physically — they’re more empowered to learn, grow, and thrive. Trauma-informed practices help us ensure every student gets the opportunity to succeed.
